PolyDyne’s QuoteWin Solution accelerates quoting process at QTRON
Oct 19, 2000; Austin, Texas:, QTRON, a leading contract electronics manufacturer, is benefiting considerably from reduced quote processing time after installing QuoteWinÒ, PolyDyneÒ Software Inc.’s quote management software tool for contract manufacturers.
“QuoteWin offers us the capability to effectively manage material pricing information and transmit and receive costed BOM information with less cycle time than our previously used methods,” said Mark Donahue, Quotation Services Manager at QTRON. “The speed improvements alone have significantly enhanced our productivity.”
QuoteWin 5.0, implemented in QTRON’s San Diego, California facility in August 2000, continues to improve QTRON’s internal documentation (standard BOM formats), reducing the time required to convert customer documentation into manageable quote documents and access to historical pricing.
“Our customers report immediate improvement in cycle time, reduction of materials costs and increase in revenue upon implementation of QuoteWin,” said David Tabb, president and CEO of PolyDyne. “QTRON is another example of a leading contract manufacturer that has significantly improved its quoting process and supply chain relationships through the use of QuoteWin.” PolyDyne’s quote management solution is expected to become QTRON’s corporate standard quoting solution in future expansions.
QTRON is taking advantage of the PERQs (PolyDyne Extended Resource Quoting) Program developed specifically for emerging contract manufacturers who are looking for an affordable entry point into the QuoteWin system.
